How does the Chico schedule fit in? Conflicting dates or not.

I am hoping the #121 will be running for the Triple Crown. I am not sure how much asphalt racing Shane is going to do. But I think this has added alot of excitement to West Coast racing.

Ok, so the question that really needs to be answered before I would decide to go for the Triple Crown - what do each of the series pay? What is the Taco Bravo purse? What is The Civil War purse? What do these series point funds pay? I'm not just talking about 1st place either, what is the payback? How about KWS raceday payout and point fund payout. So many series and tracks keep this information locked up tighter than a.....well, lets just say they keep it tightly guarded.
Next, what is the Chico purse? What is the Chico point fund? What about the Placerville weekly 360 class in all of this too? What is their payout and point fund? Also, any team wanting to chase all 3 will have to skip the Knoxville Nationals, the 2nd night of the Tulare WoO, Chico mini Gold Cup WoO and the Perris WoO shows. Possible tough decisions for the KWS teams to make.
If I was a car owner or driver in NorCal I would need to weigh all of these options closely to make my decision to chase all 3 series. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for California sprint racing this year. Looking at the USAC schedules a non-wing team can go for the USAC CRA, USAC West Coast and USAC Western Classic titles this year. I've been around racing 36 years and not sure I've seen anything like what's going on in California for 2014. I'm excited to see which non-wing teams will go for their own Triple Crown and which winged teams will go for all 3 titles. Can't wait for March to roll around because no matter how you slice it, this is going to be an exciting year for California sprint car fans!!
